...he thinks we like WHITE cars. However I really think that in some areas this is a better choice of color because it doesnt draw too much heat. I've been car shopping for 3 weeks and finally chose a white car. He said he knew I was going to pick that. :/

If I was rich I'd have a white car for the spring and summer.

But i feel they'd be too much maintenance to keep clean. Especially in the winter..

I've had a white Toyota before, but that was gifted to me. Matter of fact all the cars I had, I didn't choose the color. I have no preference. I'm not picky.

So what's the color that ur boyfriend profiled blacks as loving?

Posted By: Cream1970
Date Posted: Aug 26 2014 at 11:23pm

"Bermuda Blue Metallic"It's a greenish blue, with a purple undertone. Tri-color, slightly iridescent metallic.A very subtle "flip flop". I chose it because even though I don't like green or blue trucks. (Never owned a car in my life, and likely never will), the colors look good mixed.

I would've preferred silver, charcoal gray, gray or even white. But they didn't have the features I wanted in those colors. I chose the color because was an upgrade, so it's not as common as the standard colors.

White/light colors may show up more mud, but black and other dark colors show more dust, scratches, scuffs. That's the biggest reason rental car companies usually have more light colored cars in their fleets, and have a minimal number of black ones.

The red car = higher insurance thing is a myth. It was thought that red will make police notice you more, so it increased the chances of you getting a ticket.

I guess we all have had different experiences with white and black cars.I had a white jeep when my then hubby had a black car. Unless it rained, his car showed waaaaaay more dirt/dust/pollen/scratches/scuffs than mine. When it was freshly washed, wow! It WAS gorgeous. 3 days later, a different story.

My SO now has a white car and I have a dark colored truck. if he skips a week without washing them, my truck looks so bad that I'm too embarrassed to do valet when we go out. His car, unless you're right up on it, still looks clean.

I plan to sell the Red car . Insurance rates are higher for Red cars and trucks.

I will keep my Purple until the car stops running lol.

Gotcha. I guess it's a state thing. I only spoke based upon previous experiences with Geico, Allstate, AAA, USAA, Progressive, State Farm etc, and from overhearing and helping customers secure car insurance. But I was living in Texas, NC, LA, and IL when I sold cars so you're right, I'm not familiar with that policy in other states.
